Proverbs 15
1 An answer soft it turns away rage and a word of hurt it raises anger.
Ma te kupu ngawari e kaupare te riri; ma te kupu taimaha ia e whakaoho te riri.
2 [the] tongue of Wise [people] it makes good knowledge and [the] mouth of fools it pours forth foolishness.
Ko te arero o te tangata whakaaro nui e whakahua tika ana i te matauranga: e whakapuaki ana ia te mangai o nga kuware i te wairangi.
3 [are] in Every place [the] eyes of Yahweh watching evil [people] and good [people].
Kei nga wahi katoa nga kanohi o Ihowa, e titiro ana ki te hunga kino, ki te hunga pai.
4 Healing of tongue [is] a tree of life and perverseness with it [is] brokenness in spirit.
Ko te arero reka he rakau no te ora; tena ki te wanoke a roto he wawahi wairua.
5 A fool he spurns [the] discipline of father his and [one who] keeps correction he is prudent.
E whakahawea ana te wairangi ki te papaki a tona papa; ko te tangata ia e mahara ana ki te ako ka mohio ki te tupato.
6 [the] house of A righteous [person] wealth great and with [the] income of a wicked [person] trouble.
He nui te taonga kei te whare o te tangata tika; he raruraru ia kei roto i nga mea hua ki te tangata kino.
7 [the] lips of Wise [people] they scatter knowledge and [the] heart of fools [is] not right.
E ruia ana te matauranga e nga ngutu o nga whakaaro nui: kahore ia he pena a te ngakau o nga kuware.
8 [the] sacrifice of Wicked [people] [is] [the] abomination of Yahweh and [is the] prayer of upright [people] delight his.
He mea whakarihariha ki a Ihowa te whakahere a te hunga kino: engari e manako ana ia ki te inoi a te hunga tika.
9 [is] [the] abomination of Yahweh [the] way of a wicked [person] and [one who] pursues righteousness he loves.
He mea whakarihariha ki a Ihowa te huarahi o te tangata kino: ko te tangata ia e whai ana i te tika tana e aroha ai.
10 Discipline bad [is] for [one who] forsakes [the] path [one who] hates correction he will die.
He kino te papaki ki te tangata e whakarere ana i te ara; a, ko te tangata e kino ana ki te ako, ka mate.
11 Sheol and Abaddon [are] before Yahweh indeed? for [the] hearts of [the] children of humankind. (Sheol h7585)
Kei te aroaro o Ihowa te reinga me te whakangaromanga; engari rawa hoki nga ngakau o nga tama a te tangata. (Sheol h7585)
12 Not he loves a mocker reproof to him to wise [people] not he goes.
E kore te tangata whakahi e aroha ki te kaipapaki; e kore hoki e haere ki te hunga whakaaro nui.
13 A heart joyful it makes good a face and by sorrow of heart a spirit [is] stricken.
Ma te koa o te ngakau ka pai ai te mata: ma te pouri ia o te ngakau ka maru ai te wairua.
14 A heart discerning it seeks knowledge (and [the] mouth of *Q(K)*) fools it feeds on foolishness.
E rapu ana te ngakau mohio i te matauranga; ko te kuware ia ta te mangai o nga wairangi e kai ai.
15 All [the] days of [the] afflicted [are] displeasing and a [person] good of heart a feast continually.
He kino nga ra katoa o te hunga pouri; he hakari tonu ta te tangata i te ngakau marama.
16 [is] good A little with [the] fear of Yahweh more than treasure great and turmoil with it.
He pai ke te iti i kinakitia ki te wehi ki a Ihowa, i te nui taonga i kinakitia ki te raruraru.
17 [is] good A portion of vegetables and love [is] there more than an ox fattened and hatred [is] with it.
He pai ake te tina puwha ko te aroha hei kinaki, i te kau whangai e kinakitia ana ki te mauahara.
18 A person of rage he stirs up strife and a [person] long of anger he makes quiet a dispute.
He whakaoho tautohe ta te tangata pukuriri: he pehi pakanga ia ta te tangata manawanui.
19 [the] way of A sluggard [is] like a hedge of thorn[s] and [the] path of upright [people] [is] cast up.
Ko te ara o te tangata mangere, ano he taiepa tataramoa; he ara nui ia to te tangata tika.
20 A son wise he makes glad a father and a fool a person [is] despising mother his.
He tama whakaaro nui, ka koa te papa: tena ko te tama kuware, he whakahawea ki tona whaea.
21 Foolishness [is] a joy to [one] lacking of heart and a person of understanding (he makes straight *L(abh)*) to walk.
Ki te tangata maharakore he mea whakahari te wairangi; he tika ia te haere a te tangata matau.
22 They go wrong plans when there not [is] counsel and with multitude of counselors it is established.
Ki te kahore he runanga, ka pororaru nga tikanga: ma te tokomaha ia o nga kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro ka mau ai.
23 Joy [belongs] to person in [the] answer of mouth his and [is] a word at appropriate time its how! good.
Kei ta tona mangai i whakahoki ai he koa mo te tangata: ko te kupu i te wa i tika ai, ano te pai!
24 [the] path of Life [is] upwards for [one who] acts prudently so as to turn aside from Sheol beneath. (Sheol h7585)
Ki te tangata whakaaro nui e ahu whakarunga ana te ara ki te ora, he mea kia mahue ai i a ia te reinga o raro. (Sheol h7585)
25 [the] house of Proud [people] he tears down - Yahweh and he will establish [the] territory of a widow.
Ka hutia ake e Ihowa te whare o te tangata whakakake: engari ka whakapumautia e ia te rohe o te pouaru.
26 [are] [the] abomination of Yahweh [the] plans of an evil [person] and [are] clean words of kindness.
He mea whakarihariha ki a Ihowa nga whakaaro nanakia; he mea kohakore ia nga kupu ahuareka.
27 [is] troubling Own house his [one who] gains unjustly unjust gain and [one who] hates gifts he will live.
Ko te tangata apo taonga, raruraru ana i a ia tona whare; ka ora ia te tangata e kino ana ki nga mea homai noa.
28 [the] heart of A righteous [person] it considers to answer and [the] mouth of wicked [people] it pours forth evil things.
Ko te ngakau o te tangata tika e ata whakaaro ana ki te kupu hei whakahokinga; ko te mangai ia o te tangata kino e tahoro ana i nga mea kikino.
29 [is] far Yahweh from wicked [people] and [the] prayer of righteous [people] he hears.
E matara ana a Ihowa i te hunga kino: otiia e rongo ana ia ki te inoi a te hunga tika.
30 Light of eyes it makes glad a heart a report good it fattens [the] bone[s].
Ma te marama o nga kanohi ka koa ai te ngakau: a ma te rongo pai ka momona ai nga wheua.
31 An ear [which] hears correction of life in [the] midst of wise [people] it will remain.
Ko te taringa e whakarongo ana ki te whakatupato e ora ai, ka noho i waenga i te hunga whakaaro nui.
32 [one who] ignores Discipline [is] rejecting self his and [one who] heeds correction [is] acquiring heart.
Ko te tangata e whakakahore ana ki te papaki, e whakahawea ana ki tona wairua; engari ko te tangata e rongo ana ki te ako, ka whiwhi ki te ngakau mahara.
33 [the] fear of Yahweh [is the] correction of wisdom and [is] before honor humility.
Ko te wehi ki a Ihowa te ako o te whakaaro nui; ko te ngakau whakaiti hoki e haere ana i mua i te honore.
